Expansion



















On the Earnings call, they stated that Rayladee needed 80% insurance coverage BEFORE an expansion. Since Rayaldee is really at 32% coverage, it could be awhile.

The rumor is being spread so people don't jump ship. How long would you really cover a 2 state territory when you are going to receive $4500.00 in commission? It is I'm possible for the company to reach the 4000 prescription goal in this half of the year, Crack pipe dreams.

Very sad.

Might be a quick reversal here.
Looks like the 80% coverage initiated today. Several national health plans have gone from $900 to around $120.
Anyone care to speculate how that will effect the sales team in the short term, before expansion? Sounds like opportunity to me.

$120? Might as well be $12 million. That is no victory.
 






Exactly. Whatever moron thinks that $120 means that it is "covered" does obviously not even work in our industry. And no, for 99.9% of patients, $120 is not an option. Even if they had the money, they wouldn't pay that much for it. It might as well stay at $900.

You are correct. The "expansion" rumor is being spread so people don't leave and continue to drive their 5 hour / 2 state territory plus it keeps the "wanna be" manager types in line that they will final get their dream come true - a manager / reimbursement / NAM job.
There are many people here that believed the hiring managers when they said that OPKO would expand in April 2017 and there would be "management opportunities". Many people bet their lively hoods and took paycuts to come to OPKO because of the golden carrot. I feel bad for them that they believed them. The lies began before we were even hired.

OPKO is NOT Agmen.
OPKO's sales force is 1/16 of Amgen's sales force.
OPKO did not launch Rayaldee with any type of coverage much less Medicare Part D across the country.
OPKO's marketing department is one guy whereas Amgen had 7 people to launch Sensipar.
OPKO does not have the resources ($$$$$), manpower (7 MSLs, 4 NAMS, and 35 RSSs) to have a launch similar to Amgen/Sensipar. So WHY does Froster keep comparing us to Amgen?

Yes, JD did make a lot of promises to get people to come onboard with this shitty startup. Promotions were promised within 6 months and uncapped bonus well over $30,000.00 were promised. This company continues to lie to the sales force. We are the ones generating the business that does not get covered due to reimbursement. If the bonus plan paid better maybe it would be worth sticking it out until the expansion in November. Doubtful though since the payouts will continue to get smaller.
